Interviewing Tips For Any Profession

Exploratory research can be difficult. Through the pursuit of the strategic goals of a project, we sometimes put on blinders and run around the research track seeing only what is directly in front of us. We ask only about things that we „think‰ will be useful, and in doing so omit things that truly are useful. Seeing both the forest and the trees is one of the great balancing acts of this type of research, to horribly mix metaphors. We all want progression and to feel like we’re moving closer to the answers but we also realize that if we only ask what is logical or probe on things that are immediately available, we’re likely asking the same questions as the team working for the competitor.

These tips compiled by Sam Karp are a great reminder to what to do and how to do it.
